Set up some membership tents outside the 'G' after 5:00pm on Monday.  Irresistible!

It is not just 92 since the previous tally, but 1200 in the last week.  If we win on Monday, I expect that we will soar past 45,000 in the coming week and close in on 50,000 for the first time. It is up to the MFC (and all Demonlanders) to capitalise on our current momentum and ensure that we reach this milestone!

Makes a change from 2013 when we had to have the membership tents outside the 'G' before the game to catch people on the way in when they still had hope rather than on the way out when their dominant emotion was despair.

If they can't get a few thousand ON THE WAY IN on Monday and get close to 50k someone should call the firing squad

Can they get a few recognisable reserves players to "shake the tins" around the booth.

"SIGN UP AND GET A 'YOU READY TRELOAR' SELFIE WITH BUGG"

I'd sign up again just for that

I reckon this should be done after every win we have at the G. Even if just a couple outside Gate 2 to capture some MCC members who perhaps haven't taken up the joint membership offer.

It just goes to show what winning form and losing form can do.

We are now roughly 5000 members away from equaling Carlton, a supposed 'Big 3' club.

Their putridness have retarded their numbers while our form (for the time being) has allowed us to overachieve.

If the club can't rustle up 1355 less whatever signs up over the next 3 days (let's say 100/day, so 1055 on Monday) then heads must roll.

In fact their stretch goal should be to try and crack 50,000 COB Monday or end next week

I hope you’ve offered to help spruik memberships outside the ground on Monday.

There is no such thing as a “non member but a supporter” as you have to join the Club to support it. Maybe you are confusing them with barrackers who don’t  support the Club! Starting with your ‘family members’, perhaps if all Demonlanders enlisted 2-3 new members tomorrow (after our decisive win against Collingwood) then we will coast past 50,000 members for the first me! ?

Had we of won yesterday and gone to second on the AFL ladder, we would’ve closed in on 45,000 this week! Now even that has suddenly become a pipe dream, let alone 50K by end of July!

Are you serious? If you like to learn new stuff, move down to melbourne and work with the mfc  marketing dept.

Agree, one can only imagine what the number will be with a period of sustained success.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
